It looks AMD rig is just a bit faster. What's the feeling playing games with both rigs?
Nice job.

Graphic card is beautiful, very silent, very cold, my previous 4870X2 was very noisy and warm, always with software and hardware problems, 5870 runs very smooth on both systems, and no problems so far, I have it 2 or 3 weeks now, performance is better with AMD but the difference is very small, both systems are very fast, Intel don't have fps drops like AMD but overall I like them very much, Intel also have shorter game load times, overall I'm impressed with 5870, it beats 4870X2 in any aspect, I will never buy X2 graphic card again

Thanks man! If you like it, I have similar comparison, E8600 4.2 and 965 C3 4.0 with 5850, if you didn't see it, you can check it out here and compare 5850 and 5870 performance in the same 965 C3 conditions!

Ah thanks for the link! I didn't see that when you originally posted it. Great to see the performance difference. It would be nice to see overclocked 5850 vs stock 5870 if someone had the time to do.
